A comedian holding Nazi swastika golf balls burst in on Donald Trump as the billionaire re-opened his posh golf resort.
The US presidential candidate was about to take to the podium at his Turnberry resort when comedian Lee Nelson stood in front of the crowd.
Nelson, real name Simon Brodkin, 38, then started handing the balls to the crowd.
He said: "These are the new balls available from the clubhouse as part of the new Trump Turnberry range. I forgot to hand them out before.
"I'm very sorry Mr Trump. And thank you, I apologise."
Sorry for the delay giving out the balls you ordered Mr Trump... pic.twitter.com/7FIem5Npsl

Trump could be heard telling his security guards "get him out" as the man attempted to speak to the crowd.
A heap of the red swastika golf balls were left lying on the grass in front of the billionaire after the man was escorted from the premises.
Last year Brodkin showered former Fifa president Sepp Blatter with fake money during a press conference.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
